Abstract

Maider Zilbeti reviews Leading Works in Law and Anthropology, edited by Alice Margaria and Larissa Vetters (Routledge, 2025). The volume explores law as a lived practice and a process of subjectivation, combining socio-legal and anthropological perspectives. Zilbeti emphasizes its cumulative structure, methodological rigor, and ethical engagement, showing how each chapter illuminates law’s relational, performative, and normative dimensions. The review highlights the importance of reading the book as a whole, noting how analyses of leading works reveal processes of alterity, subaltern recognition, and justice. By fostering sustained dialogue across diverse legal and sociocultural contexts, the volume creates an indispensable interdisciplinary space for rethinking both law and anthropology in the contemporary world.
